Tribal Program Overview

The Office of Chemical Safety and Pollution Prevention (OCSPP) is proud of our ongoing, joint efforts with our tribal partners to address environmental and health concerns in Indian country.

We are committed to communicating with Tribal leaders and environmental managers to ensure that tribal input is considered in decision-making and actions that concern Native Americans.

We are aware of the unique nature of tribal risk due the cultural, spiritual and subsistence relationship with natural resources and the environment. We look forward to continued collaboration with our tribal partners as we seek to address tribal environmental and health risks in a manner that respects these unique considerations.
